MySQL is not exactly a a relational data base. Let's forget it.

I have always worked with firebird in delphi, I have no complains. 
PostgresSQL is supposed to be more powerful than Firebird. On the other 
hand, Postgresql it is more complex and developers admit that, on 
windows, connection is 50% slower than in Unix-like

I asked years ago about Firebird vs PostgresSQL, and had an interesting 
thread:
